(6) Linear functions. The student understands the meaning of the slope and intercepts of the graphs of linear functions and zeros of linear functions and interprets and describes the effects of changes in parameters of linear functions in real-world and mathematical situations. The student is expected to: (A) develop the concept of slope as rate of change and determine slopes from graphs, tables, and algebraic representations Answer the following questions:
What is the intent of the KNOWLEDGE STATEMENT?
What outcomes are represented by the STUDENT EXPECTATION?
What is/are the verbs in the SE?
What are the "I can..." statements which would be representative of this standard?
1) Identify and read the KNOWLEDGE STATEMENT of the standard. This statement gives the big picture of the subsequent TEKS.
2) Identify and read the STUDENT EXPECTATION of the standard. This statement outlines what the students will be able to know or do.
3) Identify the VERB(s) of the standard and cross-reference it with BLOOM'S/COSTA'S.
4) Write performance indicators- as specific as possible- to clarify this standard.
